Ability to associate maven goals with a scheduled build

Details

Description

It would be good to be able to run a "nightly" build with slightly different
goals than those I use to do continuous integration builds. As far as I can
tell, I can use cron syntax to schedule a nightly build, but I can't tell it to
use different goals/command-line params

I would like to specifiy slightly different goals in three scenarios:
when the build is triggered transitively (because a dependency has been build
by hudson)
when the build is triggered because of changes in SCM
when this build is triggered by schedule (e.g. nightly)
